IV invicta venustas

“I think people in the industry wanted to create something special for this media [video]. I like working with videos because you can really focus on movement and rhythm, two of my most important subjects. I always want to put emotions in my work and maybe this could serve as a reason! I like when you dive into a picture, when you need time to read it. It gives also space to create your own story while reading the image. I love to play with cheap lights, they are not strong you have to keep the lenses open for a long time, I think in that way it gives you a good opportunity to dive, like I said before inside the picture; and because of this long pause it gives you more an aspect of movement. I like to cross the photography and film mediums, get some movement in stills and slow motion in the film. I always start researching a lot on the subject as I want to be able to know what I’m talking about. For now I’m on a big project based on the subject of melancholia, So you can imagine that my free time is full of dark books and German paintings… As for models I quite like to work with the same ones, as it really great to build a more personal relation together and gain the person’s trust! But the first thing I’m looking for is emotion, especially trough the eyes.” ( Pierre DEBUSSCHERE talking to FILEP MOTWARY )
